Blocking Speed

Blocking speeds are not dependent on IAS, BoS, or WSM. They are dependent on the Faster Block Rate mod on items. Just like equipment IAS, these amounts of Faster Block Rate have to to through a diminishing returns formula. The formula is identical to the IAS diminishing returns formula:

Effective Faster Block Rate = (120*FBR)/(120 + FBR)

The parameters for the hit recovery animation are:
AnimationSpeed = 256
DrawnFrames = 5
Base = 50

Take note of the base! The FBR table is:

For ease, the FBR amounts listed in this table are the amounts listed on your equipment, not Effective Faster Block Rate.
